The Court entered a Scheduling Order on March 1, 2021 ordering the parties to file a

14

stipulation and proposed order proposing dispositive motion and pretrial and trial deadlines upon

15

the conclusion of the trial in Defendant Andrew Chapin’s criminal case. (Dkt. No. 17.) The Court

16

entered Judgment as to Mr. Chapin in April 2022. It is the Court’s understanding that Mr.

17

Chapin’s criminal case terminated prior to final judgment against Mr. Chapin in this matter. There

18

has been no further action in this case.

19

Accordingly, by no later than February 20, 2024, Plaintiff is ORDERED TO SHOW

20

CAUSE, in writing, why this action should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. See Fed. R.

21

Civ. P. 41(b). Failure to timely respond to this Order will result in dismissal of this action without

22

further notice. The Court also advises Plaintiff that filing a dismissal will not discharge this Order

23

to Show Cause.
